About this book

"Set in the fictional landscape of Mariposa on the shores of Lake Wissanotti in Missinaba County, Leacock's Sunshine Sketches of A Little Town is an affectionate satire of small town life. This series of humorous connected sketches about graft, high finance, religion, love and romance is, on one level, an intimate, comic portrait of town life and local politics. On another level, the narrative is a powerful commentary on the workings of community values and on Canada's place within the British Empire."--BOOK JACKET.

About Unknown Author

Seth was born Gregory Gallant on September 16, 1962, in Clinton, Ontario, Canada. His parents were John Henry Gallant and the English-born Violet Daisy Gallant (née Wilkinson); he was the youngest of their five children. His family moved frequently, and he grew up mostly in Tilbury, Ontario. He was inward, unathletic, and had few friends, and took to comic books and drawing at a young age. Seth attended the Ontario College of Art in Toronto from 1980 to 1983. He became involved with the punk subculture and began wearing outlandish clothing, bleaching his hair, wearing makeup, and frequenting nightclubs. He took on the pen name Seth in 1982. As of 2004, Seth lived in Guelph, Ontario, with his wife[4] Tania Van Spyk, whom he married in 2002.
